Is It Over For Icy?

“That did not just happen.”

Yes, Bloom. That did happen. Icy defended Tritannus. How many of us had about the same reaction?

Icy has had her fair share of crushes throughout the series. Darkar, Valtor. So it might not have been that surprising when she fell for Tritannus too. But one of the many complaints about season five has beent hat Icy has been acting too lovey-dovey (as “lovey-dovey” a witch can be anyway) for Tritannus. So much so that Darcy and Stormy have been pushed into the background.

What Icy did in “The Pillar of Light” took the cake. Before, Icy got over her crushes and admitted how stupid or silly liking the guy was. This time, she takes a severe hit for him!

And what does Tritannus do? He screams in rage and shatters the pillar of light. So Tritannus actually cared about Icy? Take that for whatever you will.

If Icy dies, this will be the show’s second major death. Not to mention at the hands of one of the heroes (sure, it was an accident, but for a second, it seemed like Bloom felt bad). Personally, I’m hoping Icy does live, but at the same time, I’m interested in how Darcy and Stormy would handle the death of their sister. After all, we have seen the Trix do care about each other, even if they won’t say it.

Sharing Poses

Did anyone ever notice how Bloom and Tecna shared the same pose in Believix?

Bloom's BelievixTecna's Believix

The only differences are their heads are turned oppositely and the hands on the hips (Bloom’s is inwards; Tecna’s is out). Otherwise, the pose looks exactly the same.

I saw the same with Harmonix. Look:

Bloom's HarmonixTecna's Harmonix

Exact same pose. I wonder why that is. Perhaps the artists/animators saved Tecna for last and couldn’t think of a new one? Maybe they did have a pose for Tecna, but scrapped it and gave her Bloom’s instead? Hmm.

Happy New Year!!

Winx New Year

Nick to Re-air SotLK

According to the Winx Club facebook page, Nickelodeon is planning to re-air Secret of the Lost Kingdom this Sunday at 8:30pm/7:30c.

I’m pretty thrilled about this, as I personally like this movie more than Magical Adventure and have been wanting to watch it on my TV screen instead of my PC. That said, I hope they get around to airing Magical Adventure as well.

Thoughts on “A Magix Christmas”

I enjoyed the Christmas special. It’s probably one of my favorite episodes of season five.

I was a little surprised when Aisha (or was it Tecna?) said that it doesn’t snow in Magix. Wasn’t there an episode in season three where it was raining? So they get rain, but not snow? Or does Magix have no seasons?

Does Bloom live in a small neighborhood? I’d think there would more than four kids. Then again, Bloom didn’t say her parents invited all the neighborhood kids, but why would they only invite some of them? I would guess that they’re her cousins or such, but then, wouldn’t she say “my cousins”?

I wonder if the Winx really understood what the Trix were after. Icy thought there was real magic, but Bloom seemed to think she was trying to ruin the holiday. Then again, I doubt the Trix, especially Icy, would be willing to listen anyway.

I can’t really say there was anything I disliked in this episode. It was nice for the Christmas season and I’m thrilled we got another holiday episode (last one being Hallowinx). The ending was heartwarming, as you’d expect from any Christmas special, really. I’ll probably watch this episode again on Christmas Day.

What did you think of “A Magix Christmas”?

URL Change

You might’ve had to use Google to get here. Or sonowinx.wordpress.com took you to a restricted site. You’ve probably guessed it by now: I changed Ali nel Cielo’s URL.

The reason the URL was “sonowinx” in the first place is that was the first title I came up with. By the time I had Ali nel Cielo in mind, the blog had been up for a week and I was still learning to use WordPress.

Alinelcielo.wordpress.com leads to a deleted blog, but since WordPress has a policy of not deleting blog URLs, it’s unavailable. So I went with “le ali” instead. Now, the URL matches the title.

On a different note, I added a cover to ANC’s facebook page.

Christmas Episode in Italian

Nickelodeon won’t air the Christmas episode until this upcoming Sunday. However, a user on YouTube, MagixJourneySite, has uploaded the Italian version. There are no subtitles, but the episode seems like a nice one.
